Tea and toast is a simple treat that is light in calories and great in taste. Of course the calories depend of what type of bread you select for your toast.
Most folks use white bread as do I, but whole wheat, pumpernickel, or rye bread makes great toast as well.
Tea with toast is my favorite all-time tea food. It is easy to make, and is perfect for an afternoon treat! All you need to do is brew some tea and toast some bread...what can be easier?
You can put jelly on top, peanut butter, or just plain butter. Fruit jams such as blueberry or strawberry go great with toast too. Spiced apple cider spread with just a little butter makes a great tea food along with that morning cup of Earl Grey or Irish Breakfast tea.
If one does not have loose leaf tea available (which I always recommend you use), the sweet taste of the toast with a selected fruit spread hides some of the bitter undertones associated with tea bag tea.
However, to get the most flavor and benefits from tea you should always brew using loose leaf tea!
It makes tea with toast a much more enjoyable meal, as well as give your body more of those powerful antioxidants present in freshly brewed tea!
